I assume you mean Checkstyle?  It doesn't correct errors, but the nice 
thing is it flags them as errors/warnings (as configured), so once the 
codebase is cleaned up it stays that way.  Also, you can configure 
additional code style guidelines such as variable naming conventions (ie, 
all-caps constants, camel-case identifiers, etc).
